What is a GIF file?

GIF or Graphical Interchange Format is a bitmap image format that was introduced back in 1987 by CompuServe. Even though GIF supports only 256 colors, it has significant usability on the web because it is portable and compatible with different platforms. GIFs are mostly used on websites for banners, header images, buttons, etc. Because GIF is a lossless format with LZW compression method, the image quality doesn’t deteriorate with reduced image size. Since most web browsers can open GIF files, it is easy enough to view them. However, to edit the GIF file, you’ll need apps such as Corel Draw, Photoshop Illustrator, OmniPage Ultimate, GIMP, etc.

What is a WEBP file?

WebP is an innovative image format developed by Google in 2010 as an open standard. WebP format has support for lossless and lossy compressions for web images, metadata, transparency, color profile, and animation. Its advantage is that images in WebP format are up to 34% smaller than those in JPEG format with the same SSIM quality index. This feature is useful since it can make your website faster. To view the WebP file, you can use web browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Microsoft Edge. However, to modify WebP files, you need graphics software such as GIMP, Picasa, XnView, ImageMagick, Irfan View, Microsoft Paint, etc.
